confirmed that Tottenham would be open to the possibility of a loan move with an option to buy the central-defender.

Tottenham and Inter Milan have only made but there seems to be willingness from both parties.

This news comes in the wake of Tottenham announcing the signing of Micky van de Ven.

The 22-year-old signed for the club today from Bundesliga side Wolfsburg for a fee of .

And with the club also thought to be interested in signing Clement Lenglet permanently it could be a sensible time for the Englishman to leave.

It’s clear that manager Ange Postecoglou wants a big shift in play style and personnel from Antonio Conte’s 3-4-3 last season.

Inter Milan’s interest in Tottenham’s Tanganga could be very timely.

Japhet Tanganga seldom featured for Spurs last season and an exit has looked probable for some time.

The 24-year-old’s current runs until 2025 but it now seems unlikely he will continue to play for Spurs until then.

An opportunity in Italy could just be what the Englishman needs, though.

Chris Smalling and Fikayo Tomori have both shown how well English centre-backs can do in the Serie A and set a strong precedent.

Although Spurs fans may be sad to see an academy graduate leave it does seem best for all parties at this point.

Tottenham’s Tanganga could really have a big opportunity should Inter Milan’s materialise into a move.
